Just out of curiosity ...why rotary versus a fixed wing license.
Is it because you want to be just like Grumpy when you grow up? |

You can eat a bag of dicks, but the real answer is I've always been interested in learning to fly rotary....and I want to say, "Get in da Choppa" with authority.

I did my training at the Robins AFB Aero club back in the 90's. Piloting an aircraft is cool stuff, but in the end, there are just other things I would rather do. Either way, I'm still glad I did it, and I am a licensed pilot.

build yourself an ultra-light, no license required and you get to fly in the fun part of the envelope all the time.

All the fun to be had in flying is in the low to no altitude range. Doing 500 knots or mach 2 at 30K feet is boring. You need to be near the ground to have the true perspective of the speed you're traveling at. 60 knots is exciting at low altitude. .
